The High Stakes For Obedience
Then the Spirit of God came upon Zechariah son of Jehoiada the priest. He stood before the people and said, "This is what God says: Why do you disobey the LORD's commands and keep yourselves from prospering? You have abandoned the LORD, and now he has abandoned you!" 2 Chronicles 24:20 NLT...- Christ4Ever

*UNBREAKABLE* “Man of God, welcome,” the man said mockingly to him as he entered into the dimly lit room. He looked at the man that spoke and watched as he pulled up his trousers. But his attention was quickly drawn to the activities on the bed. There was a man on top of a woman, they were... -

By Faith We
By Faith Hebrews 11:1-3 ESV Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it the people of old received their commendation.

Belief versus Piety
Hello. A friendly atheist here. A question occurred to me the answer to which I’d like a range of opinions from among Christians. This is not a “gotchya” question. I am not fishing for any right or wrong answer to prove some point. Promise. First, let me just say there are certain aspects of...- Kirby D. P.

Hope and Future
Is there such a thing as absolute truth? Are there definite rights and wrongs? Or, is morality completely subjective? Are we to show tolerance (acceptance) of all beliefs and practices? Should we make allowances for sin – sin as defined by God? Or for different religions? And, should we...- Sue J Love

Bring it Home!
What are the “devil’s schemes”? They are vast! His arsenal seems unlimited. He knows our weaknesses from observing us, and he knows, too, just where to strike us to make the biggest impact. Sometimes, he knows us better than we know ourselves, because we can often get blinded to our own...- Sue J Love

Don't Be a Slacker!
As I was praying about what the Lord Jesus would have me write this evening, for I knew he was giving me another devotional to write, he put in my mind this passage of scripture found in Proverbs 6:6 (KJV): “Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise.” “A sluggard is a...- Sue J Love

More Than Words
Do you ever feel as though God has allowed you to go through difficulties, trials, and tribulations so that you feel his heart?

Not in Freedom!
My heart is burdened. Why is it so burdened? Because so many Christians, or professing Christians, are walking (living) in sin and not in freedom!

Vain Worship
God would rather the doors of our churches be shut than for us to offer up shallow forms of worship and praise to him, which may stir the emotions, but not produce changed hearts, minds, and lives for Jesus Christ. It is better to have no sacrifices, than to have vain ones (See: Malachi 1:10)...- Sue J Love
